Whakaari (Inquiry-Role Play) Week 12

Kia ora koutou!

I te wiki nei i whakaaroaro mātou mo ngā raru ka puta i a mātou e haere mai ana i te kura.
(This week we were reflecting on hazards that we see on the way to school).

I mahi whakaari mātou, ā, ko te tikanga kia whakaaro he aha te tūmomo raru kei te whakaatu.
(We did role plays and the other half of the class had to guess what hazard we were acting out).

Ānei ngā whakaahua.

Community Consultation Day (Week 11)

Kia ora whānau!!

Kāore mātou i tuku mahi i tērā wiki. He wiki poto, toru noa iho ngā rā, kāore i whai wā ki te tuku mahi heoi anō ānei a mātou mahi mo tēnei wiki.
(Well we didn't post up any work from what we did last week. It was a short week and we did have a lot of mahi to do. However here's our mahi from this week).

 Mo te Kaupapa i tirohia mātou me pēhea te whakatau i ngā raru i tāututia e mātou i te tuawhenua o Aranui. I tāututia e mātou te raru me te rāpihi i taua whenua, arā, i whakaaro mātou me whakatū ngā ipu para hei whakatau i taua raru. Korekau hoki he ara i taua whenua nā reira i whakaaro mātou me whai te ara hei pai ake mo ngā tangata ka haere mā raro, mo ngā kai eke paihikara hoki hei whai i te huarahi.
(For Inquiry we were looking at finding possible solutions for issues that we had identifed with our problem areas. Our class had to look at the overland flowpath on Aranui and we identified two issues with two possible solutions. Issue one was that there was a lot of rubbish lying around on the ground and the overland flowpath so our solution was to put in a couple of rubbish bins so people can use them instead of throwing their rubbish on the ground. Our second issue was that there was no footpath, meaning pedestrians and cyclists had to walk or cycle on the grass. We thought that putting in a footpath that lead from one end of the overland flowpath to the other end would solve that issue).

Inanahi i haere mai ngā tangata o te hāpori ki te whakarongo, ki te kite hoki i ngā mahi i mahia e ngā tamariki o SPS hei whakatau i ngā raru.
(Yesterday was our community consultation day where the community got to come in and have a look and see what changes we are wanting to make around our community).

Ānei ngā whakaahua o te hui inanahi.
